To investigate a possible role of ERBIN in the interplay between these pathways and cancer progression, we examined the effect of TGF‐β on ERBIN expression in two cell types that are frequently used as models for TGF‐β‐induced EMT, that is, A549 lung adenoma carcinoma and NMuMG normal NAMRU mammary epithelial cells [25]. The gene discussed is ERBIN; the disease is cancer.
